The cry for cleaner autos and alternative fuel has become a deafening roar, which has resulted in an increase in the production of hybrid cars like the Prius.</p> <p>However, there is still more that could be done to make automobiles less harmful to the environment, such as making ethanol powered vehicles that produce no pollution. Currently, there are a slew of prototype eco-vehicles in the testing stages, but that doesn’t guarantee they’ll make it to production. In the coming years, will the automotive industry go completely “green?”</p> <p>To answer that question, we’ll welcome the Associate Editor for <a target="_blank" href="http://www.wired.com/">Wired Magazine</a>, Joe Brown.<br /> <a name="readmore"></a></p> <p> </p> <div align="center"><a id="lnkToVideo" href="http://www.g4tv.com/attackoftheshow/videos/21383/The_Loop_Earth_Friendly_Autos.html"><img id="imgThumbnail" src="http://cache.g4tv.com/images/ImageDb3/073/571/image73571/73571_L.jpg" style="border-width:0px;" /></a> <br /> <a class="largevideolink" href="http://www.g4tv.com/attackoftheshow/videos/21383/The_Loop_Earth_Friendly_Autos.html">Watch the large version of this video</a></div><img src="http://www.google-analytics.com/__utm.gif?utmwv=1&utmn=1492516704&utmsr=-&utmsc=-&utmul=-&utmje=0&utmfl=-&utmdt=-&utmhn=g4tv.com&utmr=&utmp=/events/rss/itemview/AOTB/The_Loop_Earth_Friendly_Autos&utmac=UA-135260-1&utmcc=__utma%3D81253694.1877236478.5/11/2008 6:51:00 PM.5/11/2008 6:51:00 PM.5/11/2008 6:51:00 PM.2%3B%2B__utmb%3D81253694%3B%2B__utmc%3D81253694%3B%2B__utmz%3D81253694.5/11/2008 6:51:00 PM.2.2.utmccn%3D(direct)%7Cutmcsr%3D(direct)%7Cutmcmd%3D(none)%3B%2B__utmv%3D81253694.-%3B" width="1" height="1">Tue, 22 Apr 2008 11:48:00 GMTThe Loop: Is The Blogosphere In Trouble? http://www.g4tv.com/rss_traffic.aspx?u=http%3a%2f%2fwww.g4tv.com%2fattackoftheshow%2fblog%2fpost%2f684697%2fThe_Loop_Is_The_Blogosphere_In_Trouble_.html%3futm_source%3dg4tv%26utm_medium%3drssfeeds%26utm_campaign%3dAOTBhttp://www.g4tv.com/attackoftheshow/blog/post/684697/The_Loop_Is_The_Blogosphere_In_Trouble_.html?utm_source=g4tv&utm_medium=rssfeeds&utm_campaign=AOTB<p><img style="border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-bottom: medium none" height="120" alt="" hspace="10" width="160" align="right" vspace="10" border="0" src="http://media.g4tv.com/images/blog/2006/08/10/632908111353154870.gif" />Undeniably, <a target="_blank" href="http://gawker.com">Gawker</a> is one of the top sites in blogosphere.

Some people want to drum like Danny Carey or sing like Maynard James Keenan and Rock Band allows them that luxury. Second, the downloadable content assures that, unlike <em>Guitar Hero</em>, you won’t have to wait for a whole new game to play more tracks from today’s hottest artists.<br /> <a name="readmore"></a></p> <p>So, what’s the future of the <em>Rock Band</em> franchise?
